this looks reat and I plan on tryign it...but wouldn't it make more sense to make the sauce in the same pan that you cooked the chicken in to retain any flavor from browning the chicken? And also to introduce the chicken back to the pan before thickening the sauce to embue the flavoes of the sauce into the chicken rather than just draping it across the top? Excited about it though looks tastey and healthy!!
